I will be watching this auction in particular to see if it draws even a single bid.

I will be watching this auction in particular to see if it draws even a single bid.

My brother is doing the same thing. He really wants this tractor and he will be in Illinois next week for business. He thinks that he could get a better tractor for the asking price, but the neat/cool factor has him by the balls.

I am watching closely as well, Tom, is this one familiar?

I believe that that is Dan Haas's listing (99% sure). Dan is the guy that puts together the Rockford/Cherry Valley gathering in August. I see he has a few tractors and parts listed right now. I'd trust Dan's description of the items to be honest.

I'm not sure if I truly understand your question, Boomer.

Are you asking if a "restored" Golden Demo is worth less than an "original, untouched" GD?

or

Are you asking if a restored GD would bring less than the opening bid price of the one in this auction?

 

[mikebramel]

I thnk he is saying when you grind off the old decals, repaint and get new ones made, it could have been anything before

Looking at the bids, the winning bidder actually place an auto bidd at 15:03 PDT (3:03PM PDT for the non-millitary types :wink: ). Looks like the winning bidder and two others got serious about it yesterday afternoon.

I guess I had to see it to believe it. I'm sure that Dan Haas is pleased.

That's the thing about e-Bay, you never know what will happen. All it takes is two very determined buyers and the price can sail out of site. As far as I was concerned, the opening bid price was already too high. I know that the GD's are becoming harder to come by but that price is surprising. I've seen several sell for well under $1000.00 in the past.

I think I paid less than $400.00 for mine.

 

[InTroubleAlltheTime]

All the ones I saw sell in the past were under $1000. Didn't seem like there was ever great interest either.
